Hi, Nandini Hengen

Thanks for your inputs. Yes, thats actually what I am doing now. I am a part of a development team engaged in creating a cd/dvd writing software. I am assigned to develop the HFS support for CD/DVD and HFS/ISO (Hybrid) support for CD/DVD.

To my Knowledge(uptil now) I have known about HFS and HFS plus the filesystems on the MAC. I will have to implement HFS plus only for the HFS only CD. Also, I dont know much about the way a mac reads the ISO9660 filesystem... But they say(APPLE people) they have some Extensions to ISO9660. If you can help me on it. Presently I am in the searching stage and reading phase of the project. If you may help in giving some of your ideas..it will be helpful. regards Biswaroop banerjee

Hello, This is in regard to your email to the hfs-mailing list. I don't think you can use Nero at all to write directly to a CD the way you intend to. As I've understood you need to generate the hybrid format and Nero already does this for you. So you can't intervene by using the option you mentioned.

You probably have to think along the lines of how you're going to produce the hybrid format you need (with your software) and choose some writing software which writes this then onto the CD. Once you're done with the first part you could use the Burn Image option of Nero or any other writer-software you may have to write on to the CD to check if what you have written is readable.
